Gaggia Brera Review

Gaggia Brera is a super-automatic espresso machine. There's very little to set up apart from depositing coffee beans into the bean hopper (or pre-ground coffee); the grinder has an adjustment system that automatically adjusts the grind levels for you. After that, it's just pressing a button to get a cup. This makes it ideal for busy people who wants a quick quality cuppa.

The Gaggia Brera comes with its own grinder on top for whole beans, along with a bypass doser for pre-ground coffee. The grinder has an automatic adjustment system that automatically adjusts the grind levels, and it only grinds the amount of beans required for a cup and leaves the rest of the beans in the hopper intact.

The brewing time on Gaggia Brera is extremely quick. Once set up, it takes less than 3 minutes from the time you power it on to the time it finishes brewing a cup of espresso.

With Gaggia Brera, pressing one button is all it takes to get a nice shot of espresso. There is no need to tinker with settings other than the brewing strength, which can be selected with a button press.

This machine can brew coffee on par with usual cafes (without specialized equipments) out of the box.

Gaggia Brera has a self-rinse cycle that cleans the machine when it is switched on or off.

This machine comes with a bean hopper to hold coffee beans. It can hold up to a normal-sized bag of coffee beans (8.8oz / 250grams).
